ONLYOFFICE Docs, an open-source collaborative office suite

SINGAPORE – April 28, 2026 – ONLYOFFICE announces its readiness to support organizations transitioning from Microsoft Office Online Server ahead of its end-of-support deadline on December 31, 2026. Simultaneously, the company has released version 3.1.0 of its SharePoint connector, significantly expanding document management capabilities for enterprise users.

Microsoft has confirmed that it will end support for Office Online Server, pushing users toward Microsoft 365 Cloud. This shift creates challenges for organizations that need strict data residency rules and internal infrastructure control. ONLYOFFICE Docs provides a seamless transition by offering flexible deployment models, predictable lifetime licensing, and native compatibility with over fifty popular file formats.

The platform delivers advanced real-time co-editing, version history, and secure sharing capabilities. More importantly, it keeps all data firmly under internal governance. For sectors such as healthcare, finance, and public administration, this localized control over sensitive information remains a vital operational need. Businesses can preserve their familiar document workflows without being forced into a public cloud infrastructure.

Enhancing its enterprise offering, ONLYOFFICE has updated its integration app for SharePoint. This major release brings the ONLYOFFICE PDF Editor to SharePoint environments. Users can now modify objects, annotate text, complete forms, and utilize artificial intelligence features directly within the platform.

The update also adds a specialized viewer for Visio diagrams across multiple formats. The new SharePoint connector greatly expands direct editing support for numerous document, spreadsheet, and presentation formats. It also enables users to view Apple iWork files, Hancom Office documents, and other file types, bridging the gap between different software ecosystems.

"The current situation is a defining moment for organizations that value control over their data. ONLYOFFICE provides a powerful, flexible alternative — combining full format compatibility, predictable licensing, and true infrastructure independence. Our latest SharePoint connector update helps to easily switch to the secure solution unlocking a new level of collaboration and AI-driven productivity," stated Galina Goduhina, Commercial Director at ONLYOFFICE.
